I ain't lookin' like nobody's fool, save it forsomebody elseAnd I ain't makin' any desperate move, 'till I'msatisfied myselfI ain't waitin' for no invitation, I just wanna walk on thruI never needed anybody, and like my daddy said

I wasn't born with a silver spoon, nowhere to hide in a crowded roomI see the attitude that's in your eyes, I got noreason to apologize'Cos what's so special 'bout a girl like you, with a silver spoon

In a city where the buildings rise, I was just another faceBut mama told me when somebody dies, no one else can take your placeI never needed anybody, and like my daddy said

I wasn't born with a silver spoon, nowhere to hide in a crowded roomI see the attitude that's in your eyes, I got noreason to apologize'Cos I've got something for a girl like you, with a silver spoon

I always knew I'd be somebody, I kept it in my headI never needed anybody, and like my daddy said

I wasn't born with a silver spoon, nowhere to hide in a crowded roomI see the attitude that's in your eyes, I got noreason to apologize'Cos what's so special 'bout a girl like you, with a silver spoon
